OPEN HOUSES CANCELLED! Spacious and stylish living in the heart of Lyon Village in the Clarendon area of North Arlington. Welcome to this lovely home offering beautifully finished living spaces across four levels, providing versatility for modern living. This residence offers the perfect blend of location, lifestyle, and flexibility. Its unbeatable location allowing owners to enjoy the best of urban-living, with daily errands and outings a breeze without a car. Located directly across from Lyon Village Park, you’ll have a spray park, playground, tennis, and basketball courts just steps from your door. You’re only ½ mile to the Clarendon Metro, with Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and MOM’s Organic Market nearby. Even closer the Lyon Village shopping center (Italian Store! Starbucks! CVS!). Commuting is a dream: just two traffic lights to D.C., less than 5 miles to Reagan National Airport (DCA), and minutes from the vibrant energy of Clarendon and Georgetown. This expansive home is designed to meet a variety of lifestyle needs: up to 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, including a guest/nanny/au pair suite on the lower level with a kitchenette, private entrance, and refreshed finishes (2021). Two dedicated home offices, one with ample built-in bookshelves, offer space and separation for remote work or study. The main level also features a half bath. The gourmet kitchen (renovated in 2010) is a showstopper, featuring an oversized island with soapstone counters, plumbed for espresso machine, custom banquette seating, bar area, two sinks with disposals, display shelving, and abundant storage. Adjacent to the kitchen, the great room boasts vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning stove, and French doors that open to the patio and private backyard, ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The formal dining room features a cozy fireplace, and a large mudroom keeps everyday life organized. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, showcasing beadboard detailing, high ceilings, multiple closets, and a spa-like bath completed in 2014 with dual vanities, radiant floor heat, a free-standing soaking tub, and glass-enclosed walk-in steam shower. The suite opens to a bright, well-appointed laundry room for added ease. Two additional bedrooms on this level share a beautifully updated hall bath (2019). The top floor features two more bedrooms with southern-facing skylights, one currently used as a bright playroom, plus another full bath. A detached 2-car garage at the rear of the home, accessed via a rear alley, is wired with outlets for two EVs to charge simultaneously. Over the garage is an additional guest suite with its own bathroom and kitchenette, and even a washer and dryer, offering excellent flexibility for visitors or extended family. This ideally sited and located home ensures its owners spaces to relax, entertain and recharge, yet within easy reach, by foot or car, to shopping, dining, parks and entertainment.
